**Description**

<!--
Briefly describe the problem you are having in a few paragraphs.
-->

Containers are unable to start when using binary logging for containerd in Windows. The binary is unable to be found even when providing an absolute path. The error could exist in [`LogURIGenerator`](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/ee3272e9cfe314d15ff5603817d4cd56492afd9a/cio/io.go#L303) method. The issue is related to `filepath.Clean` which will change the path for Windows to start with `\`. Then the check `!strings.HasPrefix(path, "/")` fails in the next line.

**Describe the results you received:**

Returns the error"absolute path needed".

</issue>
Focus on implementing the required functionality correctly and efficiently. Treat this as a programming challenge.
You are not allowed to read git history.
